Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers won the night they stopped Little Jr. from sliding. Grade: B.

Call it larceny. Earl Little Jr. sat on the board until No. 140, and the 49ers did not need to be asked twice. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In pick 24 they get a press-man option on the boundary, outstanding value to boot. More want than need.
Pick56 Rnd2 Nyck Harbor
By-the-book stuff, Nyck Harbor at Round 2, Pick 24 squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick88 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
They took Domonique Orange at par in the Round 3 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick124 Rnd4 Charles Jagusah
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Charles Jagusah. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick135 Rnd4 Parker Brailsford
They paid sticker price for Parker Brailsford in the 135th pick, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick139 Rnd4 Jadarian Price
No drama and no debate, Jadarian Price went about where he belonged in the 139th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick140 Rnd4 Earl Little Jr.
Somehow Earl Little Jr. was still sitting there in No. 140, and they pounced on premier safety value. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
